I paid Gabe C (http://www.caraudio.com/forum/member.php?u=43106) $50 last Sunday for his Raptor hard drive and have not heard from him since.

I have been patient and I waited until Saturday for it to arrive and nothing arrived. I pm'ed him yesterday afternoon asking where the tracking number was and he has been online a few times and not responded

If I dont get a tracking number or proof of shipment by tomorrow I will file a paypal dispute and persue any other means necessary to get my $50 back.

I received my drive today and the packaging was horrible. It was thrown in a box with a few of the air bag type packing things and the drive was bouncing around inside the box when I picked it up.

It was also just the bare drive, it was not even in an anti static bag. You would think someone with a high end drive like a raptor for sale would know what static does to electronics, especially when it is rubbing against plastic bags in a box for a few days.

I haven't had a chance to test the drive, but it is still under warranty so at least I am comfortable knowing if the horrible packing did damage it I can rma it through WD

Overall I would be very leary to do business with Gabe again, but considering I had the drive sold for a $20 profit before it even arrived I am happy as long as it works.

Bumping because I had another bad experience with Gabe C.

He asked me to hold a modded xbox I was selling for him and he would pay me the next day so I did. Well 2 days later he hadn't gotten back to me so I pm'ed him. He never responded to my pm and still hasn't 5 days later. He never bought the xbox I held for him and I lost at least 2 sales because I told the people it was being held for him and they moved on.

Dont deal with Gabe C he doesn't keep his word, he ships slow with no communication and his packing is crap!

i sold you a $130 HD for $50 i'll take all ****ing year to ship it, i have a job and a life and sometimes i dont have time to get away from work to ship anything. i apologized for it and if you can't accept that and wanna up your post count on stupid bs then go ahead internet gangsta, oh and sorry i dont have spools of ****ing anti static wrap mounted on my bedroom wall. if $50 is that serious to you i'll ****ing send you $50 back and u can keep the drive if it's that serious.

now please get a life and stop posting in my fs threads

oh and don't blame me if you held something and the person didn't want it and you lost sales, evidently you didn't think you could sell the xbox, if that were me i'd sell it to the first person that showed money like every other person here.

thanks, you just proved how much of an ******* you are. i paid you when i said i would, unlike you did with the xbox and it took you a week to ship it after i paid you. you have time to make a FS thread and take my money but no time to ship the item?

if someone says they want an item i will hold it for them, i am just like that. i dont need the money and thought i was doing YOU a favor by holding it until you had the money, but instead you just ignored me hoping i would just go away

why not have the courtesy to pm me telling me you lost interest? i wouldnt have cared and would have sold it to another person.

however, if you want to send me $50 for free i wont turn it down, but you know your just blowing smoke and that will never happen

it's called sarcasm u *** hat. did u not see the part where i apologized for taking too long? did he bother to msg me and ask me why it was packaged that way? did he ask for a refund? no and no, i would have been happy to refund his money if he wasn't happy, i told him to let me know when he recieved it and he never did, i expect him to come to me like a man so we can resolve w/e it is that needs to be resolved, but instead he posts here instead of coming to me to let me explain myself.

god forbid someone else would recieve their item in perfect condition just like i said it was although it was a little late. you people need to grow up and stop taking the internet so seriously, i'm a man of my word i did everything i told him i was going to do, i told him when i was going to ship it and i shipped it, it's not like i lied and said i shipped it and i really didn't. i didn't have ****in time to ship it and i shipped it when i could. i never lied to him and i never tried to jip him, i replied to all of his pms when i could, if u people can't understand that then idk what to say

ok i will take your word for it

I will get pics up tuesday of the shipping receipt.

shipped it today. i actually shipped it through DHL, i can forward you a confirmation email if you like, whats ur email?

that last pm was sent from me to him on 4/29, which was Tuesday, if you look above, i clearly stated i will FOR SURE be shipping it on tuesday, then his reply was:

not in a hurry, just dont wanna be scammed

so i shipped it on tuesday, the day i told him it would be shipped, he said it's cool he just doesn't wanna get scammed, then he makes a post asking where his drive is on monday, the day before i told him that i was going to ship it for sure, i took reponsibility for taking a tad long to ship, all he had to say was he wanted his money back and i would've gladly refunded him, makes no sense to me

dont try to turn the blame around to me, all i did was buy a drive, your the one who took a week to ship it and packaged it poorly

why would i ask for a refund? i wanted the drive in a timely manner or a reason why it was delayed. all you had to do was pm me telling me you were busy and it was gonna take a while longer, but you didnt and i waited a week and a few non answered pm's before posting this thread about it

i tried to overlook the drive issue and oofered to hold my xbox for you and i did so
why didnt you tell me thursday you changed your mind about the xbox? too busy again? you had time to ask me to hold it for you, but not time to let me know you didn't want it anymore, thats ******

it only takes 30 seconds to send a pm saying "i changed my mind" instead you ignored my pm on saturday asking you about it and thats why i posted it up in here

"grow up and dont take the internet so serious"? wtf are you talking about? all i am stating here are facts from my dealings with you and i will make sure from now on anyone who deals with you is aware of how you operate

question, your argument is that if you hadn't of pmed me that i never would have shipped it? your calling me a scammer then? what happened to "all i wanted is a reason it didn't ship on time", you lied at first and said i didn't give you that, now that i prove you wrong on that you bring up something else to whine about, get over it dude you got your drive, it was a little late and i told you why it was late and when i was going to ship, like i said i got on ca.com when i could and replied when i could, i dont get on ca.com everytime i get on a computer, you didn't have the balls to come to me and let me know that you had problems with my hd. i wouldn't have cared if you at least did that and then posted that i take a little long to ship, i friggin paid almost $50 to overnight the thing to you (shipped on the 29th and you recieved on the 30th did you not?) and you still post whining and calling names

i dont think he would scam, but i wouldnt deal with him again either and people should be warned before deciding to deal with him

why is this an issue with a past deal again? it is over with, it took you 9 days to ship, but you finally did. i got the drive and sold it for a $20 profit the next day

w/e man, you got your drive and you made your money off of it and you'll probly sell your xbox in the next couple days, what the big deal is i don't know,

post what you want in my f/s threads but whether it's on this site or not i'll sell it so you are wasting your time. i've openly stated that sometimes i might ship a couple days late, probly not as late as i shipped your hd, but i've openly stated it, so it's no secret, so let the buyer make the decision

i sold my Wii to hypnawtikpimp and yes i shipped a little late but only because DHL is retarded and returned my package for no reason, but me and him talked everyday between him sending the money and we resolved it and i gave him the tracking number and we still talk on aim almost every day, why you didn't wanna talk about it i don't know

i held it until saturday thinking you got busy and then i pm'ed you and you didn't even have the courtesy to respond telling me you were no longer interested

by the time i put it back up for sale the other person was no longer interested so here it sits just as it has for the past year

no big deal, just principle

i think it comes down to in the original transaction that he wanted a reason why it was shipping later before it actually shipped. he was left waiting on some sort of response, and didnt get that until 9 days later.
